Bushey Sensei recently posted on katsujin.org that Sekiguchi Sensei and Shimizu Sensei would be back in Texas on March 4th through the 15th. March, in general, is a very busy time for me... especially this year.
SXSW conference in Austin falls on March 7th-11th and I will be attending with the company I work for. Mandi and I are also planning additional trips to Austin so she can interview for a teaching job. I will still have some solid training days during the 2008 tokai at the Texas Komei Jyuku, but will not be able to attend all of them.
Leaving for Austin is finally starting to hit me. It makes me sad a little as I think about leaving the Texas Komei Jyuku. Although, when I focus on getting a Chuden Menkyo and opening a dojo in Austin under Bushey Sensei, I realize that spreading MJER and keeping koryu alive is more important than the status quo.
